      Hi ChristopherD,

      Thank you for sharing your experience with the BRAVIA Theater Bar 9!

      We are very glad to hear that you have space for all the speakers and are happy with the comprehensive nature of the system. We also appreciate your note about the heavy packing; we utilize robust, protective materials to ensure the components arrive in perfect condition, and we understand that this can make the unboxing process a bit difficult.

      We hope you're now fully enjoying the immersive sound experience it delivers!

      Thanks for choosing Sony!

      Best regards,
      Dominick Sony_US

    Honestly, I got this sound bar to replace my a7000 thinking this would be a huge upgrade with the additional two speakers that are side firing, versus the side firing tweeters. Seems like a lot of features have been stripped away and I don’t like that I’m forced to use my phone to make any changes. I don’t like not having a visual on the sound bar that tells me what mode I’m in, etc. The sound actually does not have as much of a deep dynamic feel as the a7000. I think I’m going to go back to my a7000. Some people may be happy with this new. “Upgrade” but I am not.
